Are the HMI products designed by Faststream?
No. They are supplied and integrated as part of automation deployments. The engineering value is in specification, integration and commissioning against the actual operating environment.

HMI Range
Control panels, web-based thin-client terminals and industrial monitors for process automation and on-site operation. Supplied and integrated rather than Faststream-designed, in the same way as the industrial PC range.
WHAT IT IS
The short version.
An operator interface is where a control system meets the person running it, and the environment is rarely kind. Washdown in food production, hazardous classification in oil and gas, vibration and temperature range in transport — each imposes constraints that a general-purpose display does not meet.
The range covers high-performance control panels, web-based thin-client terminals where the application logic lives elsewhere, and industrial monitors for installations where the compute is separate from the display.
As with the industrial PC range, these are supplied and integrated by Faststream rather than designed in-house. The engineering value is in specification, integration and commissioning against the actual environment.
DETAIL
Characteristics
| Parameter | Detail |
|---|---|
| Products | Control panels, web thin-client terminals, industrial monitors |
| Applications | Process automation and on-site operation |
| Environments | Food and beverage, oil and gas, rail transportation |
| Sourcing | Supplied and integrated by Faststream; not Faststream-designed hardware |
| Typical markets | Process industries, manufacturing, transport |
Maturity — silicon-proven, FPGA-validated or RTL stage — is confirmed at enquiry for the specific configuration you need, rather than claimed generically here.
APPLICATIONS
Where it is used.
- Process automation — operator control and monitoring at the plant.
- Food and beverage — installations with washdown and hygiene requirements.
- Oil and gas — environments with classification requirements.
- Rail transportation — vibration and temperature range beyond commercial equipment.
- Machine interfaces — local operation on production equipment.
- Remote terminals — thin clients where application logic runs centrally.
WHAT YOU RECEIVE
Deliverables and support.
- Hardware specified against the environment and application.
- Integration with the control system and network.
- Commissioning and operator handover.
- Engineering support through deployment.
Next step
Send the target node, the interface requirements and the integration context. If this is not the right fit, that will be said early rather than discovered at integration.
COMMON QUESTIONS
Questions asked before an evaluation.
What is a web thin-client terminal?
A display and input device that runs the operator interface from a server rather than locally, so application logic and updates are centralised and the terminal itself is simple and replaceable.
